dc.description.abstract Drawing on the interviews conducted with over 50 Pentecostals in various Pentecostal congregations, the article argues that Zambian Pentecostalism did not reject Kaunda���s humanism but its spiritual source of knowledge. It demonstrates that Zambian Pentecostals believe that all knowledge has spiritual source and life-giving knowledge comes from God who is the Ultimate source of all truth. In order to dethrone what was perceived as negative spiritual source of Kaunda���s humanism, Pentecostalism sought to declare Zambia as a Christian nation in order to anchor socio-political and economic epistemologies of the nation into God through Christ. en
